All I can say is don't swallow a Mento and then drink some cola...
I'm surprised that some drunken hairball hasn't done something like that already and died from an explosive rupture of his GI tract. If it hasn't happened already, I'm sure it won't be long before that happens and then we can look forward to cigarette pack style warnings on all pop bottles and mint packages. Geraldo Rivera will be interviewing the grieving family and proclaiming it as the newest "crisis". Pamphlets illustrating the dangers will be attached to all soda bottles and mints. I.D. will be required for purchases..."safe mint usage" will be an adjunct to the "safe sex" classes taught in elementary schools...
"sigh"
Isn't that what killed Mikey from those Life Cereal commercials.
